And great multitude were gathered unto him, and the whole multitude on the land. When he saw the multitude, he was moved with compassion to them, because they were as sheep having no shepherd, so that he went into a ship, and sat, and taught the people. All things spake Jesus unto the multitude with parables, and without a parable spake he not unto them. And when the day was even, his disciples came and said unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and country round about and buy themselves victuals for this is a desert place and the time is now past. But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto him, We have but five loaves, and two fishes. Shall we go and buy? And he commanded all them to sit down by fifties on the grass And they sat down in companies. He took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples, and the disciples to set before the multitude. And they did all eat, and were filled And they that eat were about five thousand men And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments and the fishes that remained to them.
